Miami’s neighborhoods each possess a distinct character and appeal, reflecting the city’s role as a major center of finance, commerce, culture, arts, and international trade. Downtown Miami is a bustling hub, home to one of the largest concentrations of international banks in the United States and numerous national and international companies. The area also features an impressive skyline, the third-largest in the U.S., with over 300 high-rises, 61 of which soar above 491 feet.
PortMiami, situated in the city’s seaport, stands as the busiest cruise port globally, enhancing the city’s reputation as the “Gateway to Latin America.” This title is well-earned due to Miami’s extensive commercial and cultural ties to Latin America, which are especially evident in neighborhoods like Little Havana, known for its vibrant Cuban culture, and Wynwood, famous for its street art and trendy galleries.
The city’s majority-minority demographic is particularly visible in its neighborhoods, with a significant Hispanic and Latino population comprising 70.2 percent of the city’s residents as of 2020. This diverse cultural backdrop enriches areas like Coral Gables, a neighborhood known for its Mediterranean Revival architecture and upscale shopping, and Coconut Grove, famed for its bohemian vibe and lush, tropical landscape.
